new theory of flight released Sept 2004 by
Mark Oliver

over easy
Hello all!
I have an infrequent problem with my Acrosport 2 that I can't seem to
solve. Sometimes during rolls, inverted flight and some times spins
the engine will quit. I always get it to start right back up after a
few seconds. It seems like I usually have to change my throttle
setting to get...

Hickory NC Airport Flight Pattern by
HBYardSale
I'm looking at a house that is about 1 mile north of the airport -- right in
the flight path of the north-south runway.
I would like to find out how many planes a day fly in/out of the airport and
typically how many of these use the N-S runway.
Any help or a referral would be greatly appreciated.
